JANUARY JOTTINGS.
Minor Events Which. Pertain to City ,
and Country.
There's less of snow and less of cold,
And less of Christmas cheer;

With laughter loud and clear;
Tchaps perhaps I'm growing gray
. A rd duller every year.

Several republicans were approached
today to finish paying the band employed
to boom the late democratic convention.
The argument used is surely a good one.
It was a picnic for them, and they ought
to pay something for the fun so kindly
furnished . '
The democratic clubs that met in our
city last Tuesday should have adopted J.
H. Cradlebaugh's resolution and imme
diately adjourned. It was something
like this; "Resolved, That congress is
now in session and Grover Cleveland is
' running the machine to . suit himself ;
let us saw wood."
The Heppner Gazette and Record a
few weeks since charged Prof. Rork with
attempting to commit a nameless crime.
So far as learned no attempt has yet
been made to disprove the accusations
and nearly every paper in the state has
referred to ic. The Heppner papers in
vite an action for libel.
Mr. Robert Mays, who has returned
again from the inspection trip to his
Tygh Valley ranch, reports that wben
he went out there was a snowfall of
about six inches, the weather became
cold, and the cattle ceased dying. It
has now turned warmer and whether
the death rate will be renewed again or
not he has no means of knowing.
Eighty-four Chinese made application
to register up till last night. Our in

Guitar club will render pome of their
best pieces and Miss Moore will give a
recitation from "Whitcomb Riley."

This is genuine spring weather. The
air has that indefinable geniality pecu
liar to March and April, flowers are
blooming, grass growing, birds singing,
frogs chirping and orchardists are prun
ing. Winter this year has apparently
; forgotten to put in his customary ap
pearance, and skies lowering, winds
howling, rain beating, frosts coating,
women shivering and men cursing at
the cold, biting, blighting, dark, dank,
damp weather are foreign to the winter
I characteristics of 1S93-4 in The Dalles.

The Moot Court.
The young lawyers and law students
of the city met last evening and organ
ized a moot club. Their idea is to( be
come familiar with tbe rules of practice
now in use in tbe circuit court and by
frequent ie petitions to learn the details
connected with the' pleading in a case.
The council has kindly granted tbe use
of the city hall, our chamber of com
merce, for the club and the prospect for
a successful winter's work is very good.
The officers elected last evening are:
President, Douglas Dufur ; vice pres., H.
H. Riddell; secretary, Daniel H.
Roberts. A constitution and by-laws
will be adopted at tbe next meeting.
Whist Club Meeting.
The Young People's Whist Club met
last night at the home of Miss Newman.
Four tables were played and if subse
quent meetings prove aa pleasant as the
one last night the success of the club
will have been great. The efforts of the
hostess in entertaining proved very suc
cessful and each member felt pleased at
being a member of the club. Miss
Maybel Mack proved the victor in the
game, winning by several points. There
were so many candidates for the booby
that it was impossible to decide who got
it. The officers of the club are : Presi
dent, Robt. Mays, jr. ; secretary, Miss
Etta Story and treasurer.
Oregon's Congressmen on Committees.
Hon. J. N. Dolpb is on the following
important senate committees : , Coast

Messrs. W. R. Cantrell and. E. C.
Warren of Dufur are in the city.
Mrs. Bay ley is very much better today
and strong hopes are entertained that
she will recover her usual health.
CURED BY A FALL.
A Lady freed from Her 'Infirmities by an
- Accident.'
One of the most remarkable cures
ever known in Maine occurred not long
ago in Portland, says the Lewiston
Journal. Three or four years ago a
lady in that city was afflicted with
what was supposed to be sciatic rheu
matism. She lost the use of one foot
and ankle, then of the arm on that
side. Instead of growing better, the
disease continuallv increased until the
'whole side of her body was practically
helpless. Ihe doctors were not agTeed,
some calling it rheumatism, others
paralysis, a fall received a few years
before being by several supposed to be
the cause. But all treatment was un
availing. . The disease, whatever it
was, continued its slow but dreadful
progress until the lady was entirely
helpless, unable to move hand or foot.
It was"at tnis time that the miracle oc
curred. One day during the tempo
rary absence of her attendant in an
other room the invalid slipped from
her chair, and, being unable to support
herself, fell to the floor.
The family were much frightened,'
but were reassured, on finding that no
serious harm had been done; but
the wonder came a day or two later
when the helpless invalid began to as
tonish, her friends by moving her hands
and doing things she had been unable
to accomplish for months. The recov
ery was as steady but much more rapid
than the decline, until now she is fully
restored to her old-time health and
skill. Whether the fall jarred from the
brain a clot of blood that was holding
her in prison or what the causes it is
evident that the fall was what freed
her from her infirmities.
Some German Bulls.
A German newspaper man, evident
ly jealous of the Irishman's reputation
as a maker of bulls, tools the trouble
some years ago, says . the London
Figaro, to look up the German record
in this line. Among others he found
in the published works of certain Teu
tonic writers the following curious ex
amples: "Among the immigrants was
an old blind woman, who. came to
America once more before she died to
see her only son." "After the door
was closed a soft female foot slipped
into the room, and with her own hand
extinguished the taper." "Both doc
tors were unable to restore the de
ceased once more to life and health."
"The Ladies' Benefit association has
distributed twenty pairs of shoes
among the poor, which will dry tip
many' a tear." "I was at the table en
joying a cup of coffee when a gentle
voice tapped me on the shoulder. I
looked around and saw my old friend
once more." . -

There's lots more cake than fly;
There's ten Bquara deals to every fake,
Ten smiles to every sigh ;
There's sneaks, but lots of good men, too;

THE DAY IN CONGRESS.
Johnson of Onto Makes a Glowing Free-
- Trade Speech.
Washington, Jan. 10. In the house,
Boutelle again tried to secure considera
tiod for his Hawaiian resolution, which
was reported by the naval affairs com
mittee and laidon the table, but was
finally overruled by tbe speaker. The
tariff debate was then resumed. Hop
kins finished his speech begun yester
day, and was followed by Johnson of
Ohio in support of the measure.
Johnson opened with an arraignment
of the democratic party for inaction in
carrying out its promise to reform what
it had characterized during the cam
paign as the "robber tariff." He said:
"We pledged ourselves to abolish it if
the American people gave us authority.
They did give us authority ; and then
pur haste to repeal oppressive taxes
. i - j - j e a z a. iv.

throat of the protected barons and rob
ber trusts, the great democratic party
began, as it were, to wag Its tail and
look for crumbs. . If Cleveland had
shown the sagacity and courage the sit
uation demanded, the ink would not
have been i dry on the commissions of
his secretaries before congress bad been
called into extra session to relieve the
country of its extra burden of taxation.
As the climax of all this delay came the
shameful days we have just passed
through, in which the bouse stood para
lyzed, because despite our overwhelm
ing majority - we democrats (would nei
ther furnish a quorum to be counted,
nor count one really present." ' He
commended the bill for its blow at the
sugar trust, but added: "The whisky
trust, the steel-rail trust, the cordage
trust, the bicycle trust, tbe lead trust,
are left free to pluck the American con
sumer." He spoke of steel rails, of
which he was one of the largest manu
facturers in the country, declaring that
the present duty was equal to 50 per
cent., while the present bill proposes
a reduction of only 25 per cent.

THE TABLES TURNED.
A. Wonld-Be Vlvisector Operated ' On by
His Savage Allies.
One of the most curious expeditions
ever planned by man was "that once
undertaken by Dr. J. G. Bunting, of
Portland, says the Liewiston (Me.)
Journal. During all his life he had
been a close student of the philosophy
of digestion, and for the purpose of
his investigations he had that remark
able Canadian, Alexis; St. Martin, in
his care for twenty years. In order to
cinch matters and provide' facts for
some of the doubting Thomases, Dr.'
Bunting cast about for some one else
upon whom he might continue to ex
periment. -aep--rf--
He could think of but one plan, and
that was to go to Africa, buy two
slayes and operate upon their stom
achs. By opening the body near the
fifth rib and perforating the stomach
a condition could be produced similar
to that existing in the person of St.
Martin. Therefore the doctor pur
chased his supplies and sailed across to
Tunis, in the north of Africa. There
he hired a native chief with forty of
his followers, paying them a liberal
retaining fee and promising alluring
largess when the trip was ended. They
set forth. The doctor carried one
thousand pounds in his inside pocket
and the chief probably lay awake four
nights thinking about the matter. At
any rate, on the fifth night he sneaked
into the doctor's tent and delivered a
little address over , the muzzles of two
pistols. When he had concluded the
doctor passed over his ducats and the
chief passed over the border along
with his renegade band. They helped
themselves to such supplies as suited
their artless and unenlightened tastes.
The doctor came back without a re
tinue and - with a deal of experience
that will never appear in a medical
work. -
One Consolation.
The author of "From Tripoli to
Tunis" tells an amusing story of a dis
pute between a diplomatist and a cus
toms official at Tripoli. On the dock
at Tripoli may be seen a curious col
lection of articles. They represent im
port and export taxes and are sold by
the customs officials. The import tax
is eight per cent, of the value and the
export tax is one per cent. If anyone
refuses to pay the tax the officials take
possession of one-eighth of the mer
chandise. Some time ago a European
foreign minister visited Tripoli in the
service of his country. He had with
bim three hundred visiting cards.
When a tax was demanded on these he
was angry and refused to pay it. A
high official of the government was
summoned to settle the matter. He
solemnly confiscated eight per cent, of
the merchandise in question twenty
four visiting cards. "Very well, keep
them," cried the irate ambassador,
"keep them. I resign myself. ' I shall
not be obliged to pay you a visit of
ceremony for twenty-four years."
COMMON MISTAKES.
Coltjmbtjs did not foretell an eclipse
of the moon to frighten the natives of
Jamaica into rendering him assistance.
There was no eclipse of the moon at
that time. s -
The. immense burning glasses with
whicn Archimedes burned the ships of
the besiegers of Syracuse at- ten miles
distance were never manufactured,
and it is now known that they could
not be. ,
Coltjmbit8 did not make an egg stand
on end to confuse his opponents. The
feat was performed by Brunelschi, the
architect, to silence critics who asked
him how he was going to support the
dome-of the cathedral of Florence.
The day is usually reckoned as being
twenty-four hours in length. Strictly
speaking, such' is a mistake. The
standard unit of time is the "sidereal
day," which is 23 hours 50 minutes and
4.092 seconds in the "solar" "mean"
time. ' '
